Whooping cough

Whooping cough can start with a runny nose, progressing to a dry cough that occurs in bursts. After a bout of a hacking cough, your toddler will breathe in, and - if your child's older - this may sound like a whooping noise.

Your toddler may vomit and is likely to be exhausted. The cough may last for several months and can occur even in vaccinated children.

Bronchiolitis

Bronchiolitis usually affect babies under 6 months, although can be up to 1 year. It starts like a cold, which progresses to an irritable cough, an increased rate of breathing and difficulty feeding over 2-3 days. If your child's older, it usually just causes a cough and sore throat.

I’ve tried all sorts of coughing syrups, believe me, but none of them helps. Even though Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa www.geocities.jp/ninjiom_hong_kong/index_e.htm does not eliminates the cough I like to stick to this chinese syrup I’ve been taking since I was a kid: Nin Jiom Pei Pa Koa. My grandfather is chinese, so I guess my mom got the advice from him. I was really surprised when I found that chinese market selling it here in Belgium. It does have a refreshing, soothing, sweetening effect…as long as it lasts…then back to coughing mode.

I dont really think cough medicine helps a cough get better, one of my doctors was of the same opinion too.

I find vicks quite good - but sometimes nothing helps! I need to take shares out in vicks at the moment ! Someone told me to rub it on the soles of their feet too - put socks on and it does seem to help a bit.
